Next, the method for the preparation of the compounds of the present invention or their salts will be described.

The tricyclic condensed heterocyclic compound of the present invention is a 6-7-6-membered tricyclic compounds consisting of three rings of A, B and C as shown in formula (4) below.

The skeleton of this compound can be prepared by the combination of bonding of ring A to ring C by the Ullmann reaction and bonding of ring A to ring C by the Friedel-Crafts reaction or photoreaction. Depending on the starting material and the target compound, it is necessary to add a carbon atom increasing reaction. Furthermore, if necessary or desired, the target compound can be obtained by carrying out a substituent introduction reaction and a substituent conversion reaction.

For example, the first step is to bond ring A to ring C by the Ullmann reaction. Then, the second step (carbon atom increasing reaction) is to increase W of carbon atoms to make ring B 7-membered. Furthermore, the third step is to form ring B by the Friedel-Crafts reaction. The fourth step (substituent introduction reaction) is to introduce a necessary substituent such as a halogen and a lower alkyl group into the tricyclic compound thus formed.

As regards the introduction of a substituent; it is possible to introduce the substituent either into the starting material of the first step or in the middle of the carbon atom increasing reaction of the second step and thus, the introduction of the substituent can be selected by taking the type of the target compound or the like into consideration when the occasion demands. Furthermore, if necessary or desired, the carbonyl group of the 10-position can be reduced or the substituent, OR (for example; OCH₃), can be converted into OH by the reaction of removing the protection.

Now the reaction scheme of each step will be illustrated.

The above mentioned reaction scheme of each step will be explained as follows.

-   {circle around (1)} Ullmann Reaction

Ring A having a necessary substituent and a substituted benzene corresponding to ring C are formed into a coupled compound by the Ullmann reaction. The leaving group in the Ullmann reaction which can bemused includes, for example, a halogen (for example, chlorine, bromine or iodine), C₆₋₁₀ arylsulfonyloxy (for example, benzenesulfonyloxy or p-toluenesulfonyloxy) and C₁₋₄ alkylsulfonyloxy (for example, methanesulfonyloxy) and above all, a halogen (for example, chlorine, bromine or iodine) is preferred. The nucleophilic side which can be used includes, for example, a precursor having a functional group containing oxygen or sulfur and above all, a substituted phenol, a substituted thiophenol and a substituted disulfide are preferred.

-   {circle around (2)} Friedel-Crafts Reaction or Photoreaction

The reaction of further bonding ring A to ring C can use a method which is conventionally carried out as the Friedel-Crafts reaction. For example, the methods of “Comprehensive Organic Synthesis: The Intramolecular Aromatic Friedel-Crafts Reaction”, Vol. 2, pp 753 (1991), J. Org. Chem., 52, 849 (1987) and Synthesis, 1257 (1995) or the ones corresponding thereto can be used. Further, by using the photocyclization method as shown in Japanese Patent Publication (Kokai) No. Hei 10-204079/1998) or the one corresponding thereto, a substituted acetophenone compound can be directly led to a cyclized compound. Further, the order of the Ullmann reaction and these reactions can also be changed.

-   {circle around (3)} Carbon Atom-increasing Reaction

When a substituted phenyl acetate derivative is used in the Ullmann reaction, it can be directly led to a cyclized compound but when a substituted benzoic acid derivative is used, the moiety corresponding to ring B is subjected to a carbon atom-increasing reaction. In this instance, a substituted benzoic acid derivative can be led to the substituted phenyl acetate via the substituted benzyl alcohol compound, the substituted benzyl halide compound and the substituted benzyl nitrile compound. Further, the substituted benzyl halide compound can also be directly led to the substituted phenyl acetate with carbon dioxide. By the Willgerodt reaction, the substituted acetophenone compound is formed into the substituted morpholine compound which can be then led to the substituted phenyl acetate.

-   {circle around (4)} Conversion Reaction of Halogen to Another     Functional Group

The introduction reaction of a heterocycle, a substituted phenyl ring or a lower alkyl group can be carried with palladium by using the methods of Chem. Rev., 95, 2457 and “Organic Reactions”, Vol. 50 (1997) or one corresponding thereto.

-   {circle around (5)} Reaction of Introduction of Alkyl Group or     Alkylcarbonyl Group

The introduction of an alkyl group such as an ethyl group can be carried out in the presence of a base for the cyclized compound in an anhydrous solvent in the presence of an alkyl halogenating agent or an alkali with the use of a phase transfer catalyst and an alkyl halogenating agent. Further, the alkyl group can be introduced into either an intermediate of the carbon atom increasing reaction before cyclization or the starting material before the Ullmann reaction. The introduction of an alkylcarbonyl group can be carried out by using the Friedel-Crafts reaction.

-   {circle around (6)} Conversion Reaction at 10-Position

The carbonyl group of the cyclized compound is reduced to an alcohol compound of the cyclized compound which is then formed into the olefinic compound by dehydration reaction, and this oleinic compound can be led to the decarbonylated compound by catalytic reduction. Further, the alcohol compound of the cyclized compound is subjected to the reaction {circle around (7)} of Deprotection to form the olefinic compound which can be then led to the decarbonylated compound by reduction. Alternatively, the cyclized compound can be directly led to the decarbonylated compound by Wolff-Kishner reduction.

In ethanol, 180 mg of 8-acetyl-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-1,3-diol (63) was dissolved, and an aqueous solution of 49 mg of hydroxylamine hydrochloride and 100 mg of sodium acetate dissolved in 1 mL of water was added thereto. The mixed solution was stirred at 120° C. for 3 hours, concentrated under reduced pressure and then, extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride solution and then, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (developing solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1). Upon recrystallization from chloroform-hexane, 120 mg of skin-colored amorphous title compound was obtained (yield 63%). Melting Point: 215.4 to 217.5° C.

Example 12

Preparation of 8-Hexyl-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f]oxepin-1,3-diol (Compound of Example 12)

In a pressure reaction vessel, 200 mg of 2-bromo-7,9-dimethoxy-10,11-dihydrodibenz[b,f]oxepin-10-one (64), 32 mg of a palladium complex, 34 mg of triphenylphosphine and further 11.8 mg of copper iodide were charged and 3 mL of acetonitrile (dehydrated) was added thereto and stirred. To this solution O,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (hereinafter referred to as “BSA”) was added at room temperature and stirred for 5 minutes to effect silylation. After silylation, 110 μL of 1-hexyne and 250 μL of N,N-diisopropylethylamine were added and the vessel was heat sealed, and stirred at 120° C. under heating for 17 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was partitioned with ethyl acetate and dilute hydrochloric acid. The organic layer was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride solution and then, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (developing solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1). To the obtained oily substance was added 5 mL of ethyl acetate to dissolve the oily substance and 20 mg of palladium-carbon was added thereto to effect hydrogenation overnight. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was filtered, concentrated and the residue as purified by silica gel column chromatography (developing solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=7:1). Upon recrystallization from chloroform-hexane, 49.3 mg of colorless plates of the title compound was obtained (yield 24.3%).

To a solution of 73.4 g (F.W. 276.36) of crude alcohol (68) in 100 mL of methylene chloride, 8.5 mL (F.W. 270.70, d=2.850, 89.0 mmol) of phosphorus tribromide was added at 0° C. After stirring at room temperature for 30 minutes, this reaction solution was added onto crushed ice. The solution was further stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes and then, water was added thereto and the resulting solution was extracted with methylene chloride and the extract was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. The obtained solution was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. As the result, 83.4 g of a crude product was obtained. This crude bromide was recrystallized from methylene chloride-hexane to obtain 75.2 g of bromide (69). The yield was 86% in two steps.

Synthesis of Nitrile Compound (70)

To 15 mL of water was dissolved 1.76 g (F.W. 49.01, 36.0 mmol) of sodium cyanide and then, 20 mL of ethanol was added thereto. To the resulting solution was slowly added 10.2 g (F.W. 339.25, 30.0 mmol) of bromide (69) at room temperature. This mixed solution was heated to 80° C. and stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes. This reaction solution was cooled by standing to room temperature while vigorously stirring. Ethanol was removed under reduced pressure and water was added to the remaining solution. The deposited crude crystals were collected by filtration and washed with water. After drying, 8.13 g of a crude nitrile compound was obtained. These crude crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to obtain 7.30 g (yield 85.3%) of nitrile compound (70).

Synthesis of Ethylated Compound (71)

To a solution of 22.8 g (F.W. 285.37, 80.0 mmol) of nitrile compound (70) in 50 mL of methylene chloride was added dropwise 6.72 mL (F.W. 155.95, d=1.94, 84.0 mmol) of ethyl iodide and stirred. Furthermore, 27,2 g (F.W. 339.54, 80.0 mmol) of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate was added thereto to completely dissolve nitrile compound (70). To this solution was added dropwise a 20% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution (80 g) and then, stirred at room temperature for one hour. Under cooling with ice, the reaction was neutralized by addition of 4N hydrochloric acid and then, extracted with methylene chloride and the organic layer was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. The obtained solution was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain an oily product. To the residue-was added a 3:1=hexane:ethyl acetate mixture to remove tetrabutylammonium iodide deposited by filtration. The filtrate was removed under reduced pressure to obtain 27.0 g of crude ethylated compound (71).

TEST EXAMPLES

It will now be shown that the compounds of the present invention have excellent pharmacological activities with reference to Test Examples.

Test Example 1 Dilating Action on Contraction of Tracheal Smooth Muscles

With the use of pig tracheal muscles, the action of the compounds of the present invention on contraction of tracheal muscles has been investigated. The method refers to “Smooth Muscle Manual” (published by Bun'eido Publishing Co.), pp. 125-137. The trachea cartilage mucous membrane and submucous tissue of a pig trachea were removed to prepare a specimen of tracheal smooth muscles having a major diameter of about 10 mm and a minor diameter of about 1.5 mm. This specimen was suspended in a Magnus tube which was aerated with a mixed gas of 95% of oxygen and 5% of carbon dioxide and contained nutrient solution at 37° C. and a load of 0.8 g was applied to this specimen, and after the tension of the specimen was stabilized, the nutrient solution was replaced with a high concentration K+ solution (72.7 mM) to provoke K+ contraction. The procedure of replacing the solution in the Magnus tube with the nutrient solution to wash the solution and provoking K+ contraction with the high concentration K+ solution was repeated again until the contraction force became constant. When the tension of the K+ contraction became constant, each of the compounds described in Table 19 (the structural formula of the Comparative Example being described in the right side of the compound of the above described Example 180) was added to the high concentration K+ solution as the test substance to measure the change in tension. The test substance was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide at a predetermined concentration and added to the high concentration K+ solution in such a manner that the final concentration came to 10 μM. Further, the final concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide added was made 0.3% or less. The change in tension was led to a strain pressure amplifier (“AP-621G”, manufactured by Nippon Koden Kogyo) through a FD pickup transducer (“TB-611T”, manufactured by Nippon Koden Kogyo) and recorded on a recorder (“R-64V”, manufactured by Rika Electric). When the tension before replacement with the high concentration K+ solution was regarded as 0% and the last tension which was generated by the high concentration K+ solution before the addition of a test substance was regarded as 100%, the contraction force of the tracheal smooth muscle two hours after addition of a test substance was shown as relative percentage. Further in this instance, the contraction by the high concentration K+ solution was approximately constant for at least two hours after the tension had been stabilized. The results are shown in Table 19.

Text Example 2 Inhibition of Immediate Asthmatic Response, Late Asthmatic Response and Infiltration of Inflammatory Cells into Lung of Guinea Pigs

It is reported [Pepys, J. and Hutchcroft, B. J., Bronchial provocation tests in etiologic diagnosis and analysis of asthma, Am. Rev. Respir. Dis., 112, 829-859 (1975)] that when asthmatic patients are allowed to inhale an antigen, immediate asthmatic response (hereinafter referred to as “IAR”) whose peak is 15 to 30 minutes after inhalation is provoked and recovery from this response is within two hours; however, in 60% of the asthmatic patients late asthmatic response (hereinafter referred to as “LAR”) appears 4 to 12 hours after the inhalation of the antigen. LAR is considerably prolonged and is similar to a natural attack of asthma, particularly an attack of intractable asthma and thus, it is thought very important for the therapy of bronchial asthma to clarify the pathology. On the other hand, it is known that when the guinea pigs actively sensitized with an antigen are allowed to inhale the antigen again, biphasic airway responses are caused. Accordingly, as the animal model line of IAR and LAR which are recognized in the above described asthmatic patients, the asthmatic model using guinea pigs is widely used in the evaluation of drugs for asthma and the like. Furthermore, it is known that in the IAR and LAR model of guinea pigs, when actively sensitized guinea pigs are exposed to an antigen, infiltration of inflammatory cells into the airway occurs together with the biphasic airway contraction to cause various inflammatory disorders to airway tissues thereby. Therefore, the number of inflammatory cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is widely used as the index for the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the airway. Each of the above described actions in the IAR and LAR model of guinea pigs was examined with the compounds of the present invention.

Experimental Method

(1) Sensitization

Guinea pigs were allowed to inhale a 1% ovalbumin (“OVA”, sigma-Aldrich Co., U.S.A.) physiological saline for 10 minutes daily continuously for 8 days using of an ultrasonic nebulizer (“NE-U12”, Omron, Japan).

(2) Challenge

One week after the final sensitization, the guinea pigs were allowed to inhale a 2% “OVA” physiological saline for 5 minutes using of the nebulizer. Twenty-four hours and one hour before challenge, the guinea pigs were dosed with metyrapone (10 mg/kg, Sigma-Aldrich Co., U.S.A.) intravenously, and dosed with pyrilamine (10 mg/kg, Sigma-Aldrich Co., U.S.A.) intraperitoneally 30 minutes before challenge.

(3) Preparation of Test Substance and Method of Administration

Each of the test substances (Compounds of Examples 1 and 4) was formed into a suspension with a 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (hereinafter referred to as “CMC—Na”) solution at a concentration of 2 mg/mL. One hour before challenge, the guinea pigs were orally dosed with the suspension of the test substance with such a dose so as to be 10 mg/kg. For the control group the medium (a 0.5% CMC—Na solution) was used.

(4) Measurement of Airway Resistance

The specific airway resistance (hereinafter referred to as “sRaw”) was measured, 1 minute, 10 minutes and 30 minutes after challenge and furthermore, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours and 24 hours, each time for the duration of 1 minute with the use of airway resistance measuring equipment (“Pulmos-1”, M.I.P.S., Japan).

(5) Measurement of Number of Inflammatory Cells in Broncho-alveolar Lavage Fluid

Twenty-three to twenty-four hours after the antigen challenge, the abdominal aorta of the guinea pigs was cut under intraperitoneal anesthesia with “Nembutal” (50 mg/kg) to remove blood and the chest was opened. A tube was inserted in the bronchus and fixed thereto and through this tube, 5 mL (37° C.) of a physiological saline was injected and sucked therethrough; this procedure was repeated twice (10 mL in total) and the recovered fluid was regarded as the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (hereinafter referred to as “BALF”). BALF was centrifuged at 1,100 rmp at 4° C. for 10 minutes to obtain a precipitate (a pellet). This pellet was suspended in 1 mL of a physiological saline and a Turkliquid was added thereto and the number of leukocytes per μL was counted with a leukocyte counter plate. Centrifugation was repeated under the above described conditions and rabbit serum was added to the obtained pellet to prepare a smear preparation. After drying, the preparation was subjected to the May Grünwald-Giemsa stain. The number of leukocytes was counted by a microscope and the ratio to the total number of cells of neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages and lymphocytes was obtained and the number of cells per μL was calculated on the basis of this ratio.

(6) Statistical Analysis

The obtained test results were shown by mean values and standard deviations and the student's t-test was carried out. The level of significance was set to 5% or less. The number of animals used in each test group was 6.

Results

(1) Antigen Induced Immediate and Late Asthmatic Responses

As shown in FIG. 1, with the actively sensitized guinea pigs, the airway resistance quickly increased by inhalation of “OVA” and increased after one minute, on average, by 475% of that before the challenge. Thereafter, the airway resistance quickly was reduced and decreased to 52% after three hours. Furthermore, the airway resistance increased again and reached 156% after 6 hours. The area under the response curve (hereinafter referred to as “AUC”) from 4 hours to 8 hours was 466%·hr. From this, the biphasic response of the immediate asthmatic response which occurred within 30 minutes after the challenge (IAR) by the “OVA” inhalation and the late asthmatic response which occurred several hours (LAR) after the challenge was recognized.

Here, when Compounds of Examples 1 and 4 were orally dosed with 10 mg/kg one hour before the “OVA” challenge, each IAR (% change in sRaw) was inhibited by 70% and 73%, and LAR (AUC) was inhibited by 77% and 86% compared to the control group (FIG. 2).

(2) Number of Cells in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid

The results are shown in FIG. 3. In the actively sensitized guinea pigs by the “OVA” inhalation, the total number of cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid 24 hours after the antigen challenge was, on average, 6,667/μL, and the numbers of cells of macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes were, on average, 2,499, 2,487, 1,622 and 59/μL, respectively.

When Compound of Example 1 was orally dosed with 10 mg/kg one hour before the “OVA” challenge, the total number of cells was, on average, 3,775/μL, and the numbers of cells of macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes were, on average, 1,872, 1,072, 810 and 21/μL, respectively; a significant decrease in the total number of cells and a tendency for the numbers of cells of neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes to decrease compared to the control group were recognized. On the other hand, when Compound of Example 4 was orally dosed with 10 mg/kg one hour before the “OVA” challenge, the total number of cells was, on average, 4,304/μL, and the numbers of cells of macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes were, on average, 2,478, 1,062, 700 and 64/μL, respectively; a significant decrease in the total number of cells and eosinophils and a tendency for the numbers of cells of neutrophils to decrease compared to the control group were recognized.

From the above results, both Compounds of Examples 1 and 4 exhibited inhibition against the immediate and late asthmatic responses of guinea pigs and, in addition, inhibition against the increase in the number of inflammatory cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and suggested a possibility that they would become promising drugs for the therapy of asthma in clinical trials.

Test Example 3 Action on Antigen Induced Airway Hypersensitivity in Actively Sensitized Guinea Pigs

Bronchial asthma is a disease characterized by bronchial contraction, airway hypersensitivity and infiltration of inflammatory cells into the airway. Airway hypersensitivity is a condition in which the airway sensitively produces a contraction response to various slight stimuli. Particularly, airway hypersensitivity is considered to be a common feature among patients suffering from allergic bronchial asthma. This experimental system in which actively sensitized guinea pigs are used is useful as a airway hypersensitivity model.

(1) Sensitization

Guinea pigs were allowed to inhale a 1% “OVA” (Sigma Aldrich Co., U.S.A) physiological saline for 10 minutes daily continuously for 8 days with the use of an ultrasonic nebulizer (“NE-U12”, Omron, Japan).

(2) Challenge

One week after the final sensitization, the guinea pigs were allowed to inhale a 2% “OVA” physiological saline for 5 minutes. Twenty-four hours b fore challenge and one hour before challenge, the guinea pigs were dosed with metyrapone (10 mg/kg, Sigma-Aldrich Co., U.S.A.) intravenously, and dosed with pyrilamine (10 mg/kg, Sigma-Aldrich Co., U.S.A.) intraperitoneally 30 minutes before challenge.

(3) Preparation of Test Substance and Method of Administration

Test substance (Compound of Example 4) was formed into a suspension with a 0.5% CMC—Na solution at each predetermined concentration. In two groups of guinea pigs, one hour before challenge, the guinea pigs of the each group were orally dosed with the suspension of the test substance with a dose set at 10 mg/kg or 30 mg/kg respectively and in other one group, the guinea pigs were orally dosed with the test substance twice, 16 hours before challenge and 2 hours before challenge, with a dose set at 30 mg/kg. Dexamethasone was formed into a suspension with a 0.5% CMC—Na solution which was then dosed twice, 16 hours before the antigen-challenge and 2 hours before the antigen-challenge, with a dose set at 10 mg/kg. For the control group the medium (a 0.5% CMC—Na solution) was used. The doses were all set at 5 mL/kg.

(4) Measurement of Airway Resistance

The specific airway resistance (sRaw) of wake guinea pigs was measured by the double flow plethysmography with the use of airway resistance measuring equipment (“Pulmos-1”, M.I.P.S., Japan).

(5) Measurement of Airway Reactivity

For two hours, from twenty-two to twenty-six hours after the antigen challenge, the guinea pigs were placed in an animal chamber and allowed to inhale a physiological saline and acetylcholine (hereinafter referred to as “ACh”) solutions of 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/mL, respectively, in the order named, each for one minute until sRaw came to the value at least twice the baseline sRaw (sRaw after the inhalation of the physiological saline). The ACh concentration (hereinafter referred to as “PC₁₀₀ACh”) necessary for 100% increase in the baseline sRaw was calculated from the concentration of ACh and sRaw-resistance curve.

(6) Statistical Analysis

The obtained test results were shown by mean values and standard deviations and the student's t-test was carried out. The level of significance was set to 5% or less. The number of animals used in each test group was 6.

Results

The results are shown in FIG. 4. In the guinea pigs actively sensitized by the “OVA” inhalation, the airway reactivity to ACh 22 hours to 26 hours after the challenge of antigen-antibody reaction was measured. The PC₁₀₀ACh of the control group using the medium alone was 0.15 mg/mL. According to the report [Fuchikami, J-I, et al, Pharmacological study on antigen induced immediate and lat asthmatic responses in actively sensitized guinea-pigs, Jap, J. Pharmacol., 71, p 196 (1996)] on the same system, the PC₁₀₀ACh of guinea pigs challenged by a physiological saline in the guinea pigs actively sensitized by the “OVA” inhalation was, on average, 1.20 mg/mL and thus, in the control group of the present experiment the antigen induced airway hypersensitivity was clearly recognized. Further, when dexamethasone used as the positive control was orally dosed with 10 mg/kg 16 hours and 2 hours before the “OVA” challenge, the PC₁₀₀ACh was 1.14 mg/mL, the airway hypersensitivity was significantly inhibited compared to the control group. On the other hand, when Compound of Example 4 was orally dosed with 10 and 30 mg/mL, respectively, one hour before the “OVA” challenge, the PC₁₀₀ACh was 0.59 and 1.63 mg/mL, respectively, and exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition. Further, when Compound of Example 4 was orally dosed with 30 mg/kg twice 16 hours and 2 hours before the “OVA” challenge, the PC₁₀₀ACh was 1.24 mg/mL, and the airway hypersensitivity was significantly inhibited compared to the control group.

From the above results, it is clear that Compound of Example 4 has a strong inhibition against the hypersensitivity in sensitized guinea pigs and, and it has suggested a possibility that Compound of Example 4 would become a promising anti-asthmatic drug even in clinical trials.
